Patient information leaflets
Our patient information leaflets provide guidance and advice to patients, carers and visitors on a number of services that we deliver.
Each leaflet is reviewed every three years so that readers have up to date information.
Please choose the specialty from the left hand menu to access our patient information leaflets.
If you do not speak English as a first language, use sign language (BSL) or have a learning difficulty, our in-house Bilingual Health Advocacy and Interpreting Service can help. Please click on the 'Interpreting services' page to find out more.
